I do recall the discussion about the Cracker Barrel cheddar cheese but I didn't realize at the time that its quality was so highly rated. I have eaten the Cracker Barrel sharp white cheddar cheese before, most likely with wine, but not on a pizza. For pizza, I used a New York sharp white cheddar cheese from Lucerne (a Safeway house brand). However, I mixed it with mozzarella to soften the sharpness.

Peter,

I didnít realize the quality of Cracker Barrel cheddar was highly rated either, until you posted the link today.

Thanks for telling me you have eaten Cracker Barrel probably with wine. Interesting what brand of cheddar you used with mozzarella.

The webcams on the boardwalk are tricky to maintain. They are affected by the weather, power outages, and lightening strikes. If you want to be alerted whenever a camera goes offline or goes back online, use the form here to sign up for alerts!

I hope my beloved Wildwood fares okay with hurricane Sandy and also all other areas of the country that will be affected by hurricane Sandy.

From what I saw on facebook, my beloved Wildwood is really taking a bad hit. These are a few of the pictures.

Stay safe in your area. My lights only went off a few times. Hopefully we will all keep our power. In the nearest neighboring town all the lights are off and even Kmart is closed because of power failures.

Jeepers Norma. I hate to even think it but after today, you might be the only one making "Mack's" pizza!

Steve,

I hope I am not the only one trying to make a Mack's pizza after today. I am almost sure Mack's will rebuild if there is damage. I saw today on channel 10 a video of North Wildwood and the water was on top of the boardwalk. You know how long the beaches are at Wildwood and how high the boardwalk is. I also saw in Altantic City Sandy wiped out a big part of the boarwalk there.

Has this situation ever happened before up there....this is a real drag.

A little update about Wildwood if anyone is interested and a few pictures.

Tom reports from Wildwood a little while ago:

Took a walk around 9:45 this morn from 24th & Atlantic to 10th & the bay. A few trees down, lots of debris but for the most part structural damages seem to be very limited. Water damages might be another thing. Looks like we lucked out compared to the devestation in a lot of other communities, winds are still pretty strong.

Update from John Lynch:

The island is still drying out. Capt Jim Grauel checking out the low lying areas of the Wildwoods...

I have been reading media reports that some people have been engaging in dumpster diving looking for food. You might want to take a trip to Mack's and do some dumpster diving there. If you are stopped or questioned, you can put on a sad face and say that you are looking for food. You might want to dress appropriately for the occasion.

Peter,

I also have been reading media reports about some people engaging in dumpster diving looking for food.

My daughter just said this morning she would like to visit Wildwood. I saw on TV what problems people are having trying to get to the shore now though and said right now I am not interested. I also saw on Mackís facebook page they arenít open now. To go down to Mackís again and have the same parbaked pizza again sure isnít my cup of tea either.

I wouldnít mind going dumpster diving again though and dressing poorly and looking sad sure wouldnít be any problem.

I heard a Northeaster might be coming up though the shore area maybe this Tuesday or Wednesday. Those poor people have been through enough.
